The athletes themselves are 30 and provided with scholarships. College coaches i-dentify 31 teenagers and then go into high schools to 32 the country’s best players to attend their universities.

Top college football programs 35 scholarships to 20 or 30 players each year, and those student-athletes, when they arrive 36 campus, receive free housing, tuition, meals, books, etc.
